If you can get the router out of the basemet, that should help tremendously. Basements are amongst the worst places to put the router if you plan to use wireless. The router can be re-located to any location with a coaxial jack, unless you have ordered a package faster than 75Mbps/75Mbps, then you must run CAT5e.

Smith, what's your experience with firing up ICS on the devices to act as Wireless Extenders/Repeaters.

I use the Fios Network Extender in my house. It works great. It uses the existing coax connected to the Fios and it self configures to the Actiontec Rev I router. https://webmail.verizon.com/signin/Login.jsp?auth=t

If you do a transparent bridge and use ICS, it works decently well. All depends on the hardware at hand, though. Wiring up when using ICS is best.
